ABOUT THIS PIECE Hendrick ter Brugghen's Esau Selling His Birthright was created in 1627 and is in Thyssen Bornemisza Museum Madrid. The size of the work is 106,7 x 138,8 cm and is made of oil on canvas. Here he depicts an episode from Genesis (25, 29‒34) just after Esau has sold his birthright. Jacob, hearing his twin brother swear the oath, holds out the bowl with the lentils. In addition to the two principal figures, Jacob seated on the left and Esau on the right holding a stick with dead game, the artist included their mother Rebecca holding a plate and the old, blind Isaac, their father, seated in the background on the right. Ter Brugghen used a type of closed composition that is frequently to be found in his works, in which all the elements are directed towards the centre of the canvas where we see a candle that is the only light source. It illuminates the outlines and forms of the figures in an intense play of chiaroscuro. The Artist: Hendrick ter Brugghen (1588 - 1629) was a Dutch painter of genre scenes and religious subjects. He was a leading member of the Dutch followers of Caravaggio.
